I do like watching P.A Works original series and looking at the video, this could be a rather fun and quirky series to watch this summer. I'll definitely check it out.

@MadanielFL You mean it will be remembered for something other than the opening song ?

@MadanielFL This is his second full-length project in this role, so it looks like the studio is really giving him the credit of confidence.

Same director as Ya Boy Kongming!, looks interesting.

I might express surprise that PAWORKS is going to release two all-female anime this year, but at least this show actually looks like an intriguing original show. It seems like it's going to play into the social media theme in some way, but I'm already feeling the vibes of a quirky sci-fi show from the '10s.
